6. In the Windows program you want to print
your booklet from, prepare the booklet
document. Set margins and fonts as you want
them to appear in the booklet.
Remember that each booklet page will be one-
half as large as the sheet it is printed on and
you may not want the same size margins as
when you print on a full sheet. For example, if
you select booklet on letter, your page size
needs to be 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". You may want to
select 1/4" margins to allow space for the text
of your document.
If you are printing an existing document as a
booklet, your document will be automatically
reformatted when you select the booklet
paper size. You may need to adjust the
margins and check the formatting for this new
booklet size.
7. Important: In your Windows program, select
the Booklet paper size you want to use. (You
must complete this step in order for your doc-
ument to print as a booklet.)
Windows programs have different ways to
select a paper size. Frequently, the paper size
is changed on a Print Setup or Page Setup
dialog box invoked from the File menu. You
may need to consult your program's manual
or help system to learn how to select a paper
size.
When you select a Booklet paper size in your
program, you'll notice that the document is
automatically reformatted to reflect the new
size. (However, you may need to make
adjustments to the size of your text and
margins.)
Note:
In some programs such as
Microsoft PowerPoint, you cannot set
paper size to Booklet in the file or page
setup dialog boxes. Therefore, you cannot
use these programs to successfully per-
form Booklet Printing.
8. When ready, print your document.
The SuperScript 1260 Windows Printer Driver
will print the first side of the booklet pages,
with an instruction sheet. For Booklet Letter,
the printed paper will exit through the rear
slot or Face-up output tray. For Booklet Legal,
the paper will exit to the main output tray on
the top cover.
9. After the first side has printed, the printer will
pause and wait for you to reinsert all the
pages in the Multi-purpose tray or cassette
according to directions on the instruction
sheet. Press the On Line button. When
finished printing, you can fold the pages to
complete the booklet.
